Dispatching System Snafu Prompts Systemwide Caltrain Delays

Your Caltrain commute just got a little tougher this morning. A technological error with the system's dispatching system has caused all sorts of delays and headaches today.

"At around 8:30 a.m. today, the computer dispatching system failed, [Caltrain spokeswoman Christine Dunn] said, forcing Caltrain to halt all trains," reports SF Appeal. "'We are not able to operate trains, so there are major system wide delays and we don’t have any idea on how long this will take to repair,' Dunn warned."

VTA, Samtrans, and BART will accept Caltrain tickets for the time being. Godspeed, commuters.
